4) On the Organizer page of the Page Style dialog box, look at the Next Style property. This

Tip
Note
Alternatively:
• Select Format > Title Page; accept preselected options. Click OK.
• Select Format > Page; continue from step 4 above.
You can override the Next Style property by manually inserting a page break and
specifying a page style or by starting a page with a paragraph or table that has its
own page style property defined. These techniques are described in “Inserting a
landscape page into a portrait document” on page 114.
